David Tyree makes one of the greatest catches in Super Bowl history when he hauls in this 32-yard pass from Eli Manning as the Giants stun the Patriots in Super Bowl XLII.

David Tyree is "not officially" retired, but he knows it's "very likely" he's at the end of his NFL career.

The 30-year-old free receiver admitted that Friday when he stopped by to see his former team practice. Tyree spent last year with the Baltimore Ravens, but is currently a free agent and didn't sound like a person who expects to be in uniform next year.

"I'm not one of those guys looking to come in in Week 5," Tyree said inside the Giants' locker room. "I'm not really hung up on it. My career has been a tremendous ride if it's over."

The Montclair, N.J. native certainly got a lot out of his seven-year career, though nothing he did compares to his famous, hand-to-helmet catch in Super Bowl XLII. That moment - arguably the greatest catch in Super Bowl history - guaranteed Tyree an honored place among the most celebrated players in Giants history.

Still, due to injuries to his knee and his hamstring, Tyree was let go by the team at the end of last summer. He eventually hooked on with the Baltimore Ravens and played in 10 games, almost exclusively on special teams.

Since then, Tyree said he's talked to a few teams about possibly coming to camp this summer and he's been working out a little on his own, though admittedly "not enough to stay at a Pro Bowl level." He said his priorities in life these days include being "a full-time dad and full-time husband." Tyree has five children, including a son, Solomon, who was born just five days ago.

"Right now, at this point in my career, my priorities are lined up a little different, being a husband, being a dad and things of that nature," he said. "The sacrifice that it takes to play at a high level is tough to do on your own. But we'll see how it works out."

Tyree said "I know I still have stuff to give" to the NFL, though he was adamant that "coaching is not an option" if his playing days are over. And he does certainly sound like those playing days are over.

"We'll see," Tyree said. "It's very likely I could shut it down and I won't have any qualms about it."

Whenever he does make it official, he said that despite his one year with the Baltimore Ravens, in his heart he'll be retiring wearing Giants blue.

"At the end of the day, I'm a Giant," he said. "My greatest moments have been here. My greatest memories are here. I don't know if I've quite reached that status to sign a one-day deal. When I decide, I'll make the world know that I'm a Giant. There's no qualms about that."
